Delete columns in result if only gaps in column
Detailed output
Ensure optimal solution (costly)

If you want to use a protein alignment but obtain the output in nucleotides, please submit the nucleotide alignment below (you must still submit the protein alignment in the field on the top of the page).
The fasta identifiers for every sequence must be identical in the two alignments.

Submit a second fasta file in FASTA format directly from your local disk:
